1. Email is still the most important marketing tool for all of us

asset-24.pngThe webinar opened with the confirmation that despite the rise in Social Media, Paid Traffic and influencer marketing, Email Marketing still reigns king as the most important marketing tool.

There are nearly 3 times as many email accounts as there are Facebook & Twitter accounts combined.

The total number of Google, Yahoo! and Bing searches combined equals just 1.1% of all email traffic.

Most people already use an email marketing tool, creating data whilst also managing data (managing email opt-in/outs), understanding whose opened and clicked and increasingly you’ll be managing consent more (with the rise of GDPR).

2. Three tiers of information

asset-44.pngSeparate to email marketing data (name, email, email statistics) CRM holds rich data sets including pipeline status and purchasing history, all important information to guide email marketing.

Alongside this website data typically holds consent data, forms, page views and landing pages.

For many organisations managing these systems is a real challenge – exporting information from a CRM and website into an Email Marketing Platform and then pushing back can present a real challenge and mean they miss out on enhanced customer intelligence.
